The defense this year is pretty close to 17-18s IMO. Bad.It's not just this game. It's all season. Iowa State has by far the worst defense in the Big 12 and it's not even close.

He's not wrong. As much as many on here may not like it, Fran was right.
But he’s absolutely right. If we don’t get quality juco or grad transfers, next year is going to be really ugly.It was nice of Fran to basically say we’d never win next year because of how young our team would be. Bummer, but I’ll cheer our boys on.

I don't need Prohm to go MAD FRAN, but c'mon man...he needs to fight for his players. Obvious basket interference call and a wrong over and back call. No grit and fight.... the players mirror their coach.
You are wrong, plain and simple. No bearing on the outcome of tonight's game? It could quite easily have been a 16 point loss if the basket interference and the over and back that wasn't were called correctly AFTER consultation time. I never said that we'd win the game, I just said the officials can't even call an even game when they know their team, I mean Kansas, is going to win no matter what.
So, you are wrong, you are apologizing for officiating that leans Kansas' way ALL THE TIME. It not only leans their way when we play them, but when they play everyone else in the conference AND it is infuriating. We likely could never win this game. Kansas is that good and we are not this year. But, is there a reason to continually give them the advantage? HUGE advantages over and over? NO. And you suggesting that we just allow the refs to call terribly against our team and for another team becuase we couldn't beat them anyway. That is just pitiful.
Kansas is the #3 team in the country for a reason... I saw some good things tonight though, especially from Solo, Conditt, and Jackson. The first half was pretty dang fun also.
You are rearranging the Titanic deck chairs.
In the last 40 years in Lawrence, ISU is 5-35. One would think after five seasons Steve Prohm could have closed that gap substantially.

Our defense is far and away the biggest issue of this team.Crazy to think you can hit 9 3's in the first half and be down 10. Kind of bunks the idea that all we need is shooters.
Well actually two reasons... That and being butt buddies with the NCAAShoe sponsorships?
Quaker Steak & Lube....emphasis on the lubeWonder where Self is taking Fran out to eat tonight?
But losing by 20+ is still towards the bad end of our results there (of 40 meetings since 1980, that's tied for the 10th worst margin). We havent seen that since Fred's first year
